Simple cheese & pepperoni
Brian G.

A local staple that never disappoints. I've always went with the pizza by the slice for lunch, which is a great deal. The crust is paper thin & crispy. I don't eat here enough but when I do I'm reminded why I always come back! I'd hit it...again.

Great pasta and even better pizza; what more can one ask for?! I first ordered dinner and the family enjoyed the fettuccine alfredo, spaghetti w/meatballs, and garlic knots. The alfredo sauce was thick/creamy albeit a tad under-salted. The meatballs were huge but moist and well seasoned. Lastly, their garlic knots were absolutely divine! The only thing that would've put them over the top, is being tossed with grated parmesan like they do in NYC (I mean if you call yourself Brooklyn Pizza...) lol. Dinner was so good that we decided to order pizza a week later and boy, was I glad we did. The large cheese pie had the right amount of cheese and the most perfect, doughy crust that I've had outside of NYC. I'm tempted to ask if they import the water. This will be our go-to spot for pizza, and I'm so glad they offer delivery in addition to indoor dining.

Where do I start? The staff was so amazing. My girlfriend Brooklyn and I came to Brooklyn's pizza and pasta on our way home. Our visit was so amazing being that my girlfriend's name was Brooklyn. She was excited about all the Brooklyn theme stuff inside. The owner Diane caught one of our conversations and offered her a free T-shirt. Just all around good pizza and good service. 10/10 would recommend! Thank you Diane for making us feel welcome!

Lunch with the family, takeout to watch a game, or a slice of cheese on the go. This pizza rises to the occasion.

Half pepperoni and meat pizza

This is a small family ran pizza place. That has a great product with a strong faithful following. First my suggestion would be to clean the location the ceiling is covered with dust from using flour to make dough. Maybe get some adult supervision to run the day to day business. Now onto the food, first the garlic knots I thought were good in the garlic butter, they were a little tough but we still enjoyed them. The lasagna was HUGE it was very serviceable worth the cost we had the dinner portion they do have a lunch special which is a normal person portion. Finally on to the pizza the toppings were very good the crust has great potential it just lacks a little something. Over all it was not a bad choice to try just realize it can be that much better. Try a large pepperoni pizza and a cold beer.

Easily the best pizza in Cincinnati! It's the only place you can find upstate New York style pizza. They even have a Syracuse flag hanging in the restaurant. Absolute gem of a place located in the suburbs of Cincinnati.

Disappointed Ordered a pepperoni pizza and it was not the best. Customer Service wasn't the best.

We had an unforgettable experience at Pepp & Dolores last night. It's rare that a restaurant…read moremanages to combine incredible food with such genuine, heartfelt hospitality. My husband and I went to dinner for our 10 year anniversary after a very difficult week for our family, and we were honestly too emotionally drained to make decisions. Our server, Jasmine, kindly took the reins and chose our meal for us -- which turned out to be the best decision we could have made. Every single dish she brought out was phenomenal. We started with the artichokes, arancini, and whipped ricotta -- each one better than the last. Then came the lemon pasta, spicy vodka pasta, shrimp, spaghetti and meatballs, and veal scallopini. Everything was absolutely delicious and clearly made with so much care. By the end we were so full we couldn't even attempt dessert. What made the evening truly special, though, was the kindness of the team. Levi, the GM, went so far out of his way to make us feel cared for and welcomed during a moment when we really needed it. The warmth and compassion we experienced there meant more than I can adequately put into words. Restaurants often talk about hospitality, but the team at Pepp & Dolores truly embodies it. Thanks for an evening we will never forget.

Love their oil packed tuna, their bistecca fiorentina and the pappardelle al cinghiale!! Unfortunately, we had no room for dessert so we're going to have to go back again to eat more.

It's a nice vibe, though definitely on the darker side. I ordered the black kale salad, cappellacci (short rib, shallot, thyme), and the branzino. * The kale salad was solid, but a bit heavy on the pecorino. * The cappellacci was decent, though the accompanying elements didn't quite work for me. * The branzino was cooked well, but overall the dish didn't stand out in flavor. In general, the food felt underwhelming for the price. My bill was around $100, and I didn't feel the quality or flavor justified it. Some dishes came across a bit muted -- not sure if that's the intended style, but it didn't land for me. Parking in the area was also a bit inconvenient. Overall: great ambiance, but the food didn't meet expectations for the cost. I probably wouldn't return.

Everybody, each member of the staff was fantastic. The pomme soufflés are out of this world. They are such a treat. We always love their Hamachi, specially, when they have it with the grapefruit and slivers of jalapeños. Right now they have a truffle Hamachi, which was really fabulous as well. Their foie gras torchon is also exceptional. We cannot wait for them to bring back the cod in buerre Blanc sauce. But last night we opted for the hamburger, which is quite the treat there. If you are a bourbon drinker, you should try their buffalo trace single barrel right now. My husband thought it was more delicious than most other buffalo trace, more of a cherry and vanilla hint. Anyway, we had a perfect night.

The location and venue are super cool, beautifully decorated and super interesting. The service is also impeccable, our server Lindsey was very knowledgeable and the rest of the staff seemed to care for patrons to ensure they had a great experience. However, our final bill came to over 900$ and none of us were impressed by the food. I understand fine dining is not going to be large portions, but 1 small scallop and 1 Brussels sprout for 32$ is insane. The rest of the dishes were fine, but in the same way they were very small for insane prices. The pommes soufflés are just French fries. There are so many better places in the city that you're not going to spend this kind of money and get such disappointing food.

Our reservation was at 7:30 and we arrived around 7:25. When we got there I noticed the table near the chef's counter was still occupied, but we weren't too concerned since the party already had their to-go bags on the table. About 15 minutes passed and they ended up ordering dessert (slowly), so it became clear they weren't leaving anytime soon. The manager offered us a different table and apologized, but Lola had been really looking forward to the chef's seating since that's specifically what we reserved. In the end we waited about an hour, which was frustrating, especially since the other party could clearly see we were waiting. Overall it was an awkward situation to be in. That said, the staff handled the situation very kindly. The manager offered Lola a tour of the kitchen and the chance to meet the chef. My daughter was a little nervous and wanted me to go with her, but it seemed like the invitation was meant just for her and they didn't want adults in the kitchen (I get it!). The manager noticed she was scared and took her hand and walked her through the kitchen which made my daughter feel at ease. It was a thoughtful gesture and they were incredibly apologetic the whole time. Again, it was just an awkward situation overall. Plus we were starving. The food, however, was fantastic. The pasta was made from scratch and tasted incredibly fresh. The eggplant parmigiana was excellent, and I especially loved the "Via-misu." Despite the long wait, the staff was so kind and apologetic that it actually made us want to come back and try the experience again.

Our table had the short rib pappardelle and the lasagne. Generally agreed that there was a little too much bechamel with the lasagne, but the short rib pappardelle was fantastic. We had the prosciutto service, focaccia and the arancini for starters, and all were excellent. The Caesar salad was a little watery - like the lettuce was washed but not really dried. Our server (I think Beth) was perfect. Attentive, well versed in the menu, and quickly resolved a minor issue with the check very helpfully. The rest of the team was great too. If it was just for service, it would be 5 stars for sure. I look forward to returning!
